Idk if y’all heard but last month, we reclassified the green anaconda into two separate species with a genetic difference of like, 5.5% (humans and chimps only have a 2% difference), so this was huge. And the snake they found that confirmed it? Found dead, and it’s going through the rumour mill that she was shot. I believe it, because she was in the prime of her life and set to live much longer without interference.
I am beyond frustrated and upset, not only that poachers and hunters find joy in killing for sport, but take advantage of publications that are meant for enrichment to hunt these animals. And the other thing is now the scientists who found her and reclassified the species are being blamed for her death. “They should have kept their mouths shut about it” shut the fuck up. I’m just, way beyond angry.

Nocturn kidnaps people.(or he's a drug dealer like Undergrowth)
Spectra is a corrupt psychologist.
Vlad is wanted for bribery, fraud, resisting arrest, attempted murder, and money laundering (his crimes do go on, I just couldn't find the correct terms for the crimes I was thinking of adding).
Johnny and Kitty are wanted for multiple accounts of speeding and graffiti.
Ember is wanted for property damage and mild arson. (those aren't her only crimes, they're just the only ones they can prove at this time)
Walker was abusing his power as a warden (like Lyle Bolton from Batman the Animated Series ep Lock Up)
Pariah Dark is a murderer and running death cult.
The GIW are rival bounty hunters that harassed him, his parents, and his friends in high school.
His parents are still scientists, but they sell somewhat sketchy home protection tech and (sometimes) fudge.
Dani does exist. Vlad created cloning tech in hopes to better avoid the law. He decided to test it with Danny's DNA.
Valery Grey became a bounty hunter for a short time. She and Danny ended up hunting each other on accident while hunting for Vlad.
Edit: I did add people to the list and change some things. Vlad down is either added or edited. I also edited Aragon's and Box/Lunch Lady's.

Random headcanon:
The head of the beastkeeping coven before Eberwolf was basically the boiling isles version of a poacher.
The previous head was a massive big game hunter, hunting any rare creature they could find simply because they could and because they enjoyed the thrill of the hunt, plus they would skin and/or taxidermy the thing afterwards so they could use it as a decoration or trophy in their house. They’d often use their high status as a coven head as an excuse to hunt endangered and protected animals.
They also collected human artifacts for a time, especially ones associated with human animals. Their prized positions are a tigerskin rug that was found in good condition and a very old elephant gun that they repaired and modified using magic.

Savanaclaw Poachers
Despite the reputation of Savanaclaw being a Beastman Dorm only. There are in fact Non-Beastmen that are part of the dorm, however they are a minority. They do tend to stick together and have each other’s back. Kind of like a pack of their own
They are no different from their dorm mates and are just as loud and aggressive if not more so to keep up with the beastmen. They refer to themselves as the Poachers as everyone once in a while they have a habit of going after the dorm mates to mess with them

Poachers Prompt
Far from home, our protagonist finds a place to settle for the night. It's not much, but it'll protect them from the elements and hopeful the animals will avoid it. Unbeknownst to our protagonist, the hut turns out to be a trap...
for humans.

“Oh, I have a story that might sate y'all's curiosity. It includes poacher hunting, Wyvern eggs...
I remember very well the first time we met; I had joined the anti-poaching field barely a few weeks before, and was just assigned to a new mission, far away from usual hunting grounds. While most of our team took care of the poachers, my leader took me alone with him for a special task. I was still wearing my regular Nargacuga armor back then...
We ran to take cover, as we didn't want to harm the beast; but the terrain was irregular and hard to navigate.
Luckily, she didn't want to leave her nest, as my superior suspected; letting us escape with no harm. Who knows how far she would have chased us otherwise... And she could have hurt me quite bad as my armor wasn't nearly strong enough to resist one of her blows.
But it seems the experience thrilled me more than it deterred me. As soon as I received my first Special permits, a few weeks later, I took every opportunity I got to hunt Silverwinds that wandered too close to towns. The beast challenged my skills and determination like very few had before, making me grow into a stronger hunter.
I have also met other types of deviants, some more rare than others, that I may talk about if you wish... But I have never seen that one-eyed female Silverwind again.”

bloom does want to trust people, but she's already had far too many interactions that have almost lead to her being captured...she's just a bit...hesitant.

No enchantments, no science, no nothing. Just pure nylon net. Probably not the best trap to pack on a ghost hunting trip but I’m sure he’ll learn that lesson pretty soon. Consider calling some professionals next time!
